    Don't know why this location has such bad reviews. Anthony has been the manager at least 7 months and runs the shop like a well oiled machine. We were greeted by Adam and he quickly got my car in the bay for service. He was pleasant and professional and his uniform well put together. Devin and Lukas were our main service guys. They were personable informative and their uniforms were well put together. When I presented a coupon he advised it was not valid but located one for me that I could use. I did not even have to ask. I watched the service through the window and saw precision work being done. Check and rechecks. My service was done in a reasonable amount of time and Check out was easy. Waiting room was clean And there is a Tv. Give this location a try and help raise their rating. A good local business in CV with hard working people. Nice Job Devin And Anthony. Also Working there Benjamin and Jamie.

    I have a company car so the process of getting an oil change is a bit different. I originally went to meineke to get an oil change and had the absolute worst experience (I'll save the details for their review). Jiffy Lube was decent. A friendly worker greeted me at my car when I was getting out and asked how he could help. After stating I needed an oil change he immediately took my keys and brought my car into the service area. It's not the most comfortable waiting area as there were only chairs and water. Adding a keurig like some other shops would make it more cozy. The whole process took a little over an hour even though I was the first one there. I think it took so long because they're short-staffed. Overall, an OK spot to get an oil change.

    This was recommend by one of my Castro Valley neighbors.

Shortly after dropping it off, I got my detailed analysis, followed by a link that let me watch the work being done livetime. Thought I was going to end up paying a lot more than I did. 2006 F-150. Never been in the shop. I figured I was going to pay big time... I was due. Darin and George we're straight shooters, so I'm a satisfied customer.

I brought my car in because it wasn't driving the way it normally does. They kept the vehicle for a day and contacted me the following day to recommend replacing the transmission. The estimate was approximately $9,800, which was far beyond what I expected--and, quite frankly, extremely concerning. My vehicle is not yet six years old, and I have consistently kept up with routine maintenance, including regular oil changes. Naturally, I was very disappointed to be told that I needed a replacement transmission, especially at that cost. I decided to get a second opinion from another repair shop, and I'm very glad I did. They diagnosed the issue as spark plugs and ignition coils--not a transmission problem. After replacing those components, my car is now running beautifully. I appreciate the customer service I received, but unfortunately, I cannot justify returning to a shop that would recommend a repair of nearly $10,000 when the actual issue turned out to be something significantly less expensive. I understand that diagnostics can sometimes be complicated and that different shops may reach different conclusions. However, an estimate of $9,800 is a substantial amount of money, and I strongly recommend getting a second opinion before committing to a repair of that magnitude. Thank you for your time and for the service you provided. I sincerely wish you the best, but based on this experience, I will likely may not return.

I usually supply my own OEM parts for repair but decided to let Mangale order a fan clutch for my overheating F150. I asked about brands like Hayden and Four Seasons but was told they have had problems with these so I let the shop order whatever they recommended that works best. The Hayden, Four Seasons and Metrix (API) fan clutches are all under $60 on Parts Geek. My issue is I was charged $261 for a Metrix 1604-328141 Severe Duty (robbed 25hp). The same clutch is on Parts Geek for $59. That is a 444% mark up on this same part by the same manufacturer. My advice is to supply your own OEM parts. You will $ave in the long run. My second complaint is a bolt broke off on the thermostat housing while replacing the thermostat (corrosion). It happens and I get it. What I do not understand is how can extracting one bolt cost $750. I was charged 3.5 hours to remove one bolt. I feel like the problem was exaggerated to me verses buying a new manifold. I overpaid the clutch fan by $200. Then the bolt extraction should be 1-2 hours tops so I was overcharged $400 for that as well. I should have gone to the dealer

This was the closest shop to me, and now I know I'll never go anywhere else. The whole experience was amazing. It's literally a drive-thru service you don't even have to get out of your car! The customer service is top-notch. Everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and always smiling. You can tell they genuinely enjoy what they do. My technician, Uriel, was incredibly kind and informative. He explained what my car needed without being pushy at all. Unlike some places I've been, I wasn't bombarded with a list of expensive services or talked down to. He simply gave me the information and let me decide, which I really appreciated. I paid about $140, which is around what I normally spend for an oil change, and I happily left a good tip because the service was that great. They also offer a free oil top-off before your next 3,000 miles, which is such a nice bonus! Highly recommend this place. They've definitely earned a loyal customer!

And that's a good sign that they're just helpful and honest. I could see the workers in the other bay laughing and being friendly with the customers and other workers. So it was just a nice vibe for a lunch break on a weekday. They also cleaned my windshield and replaced my wipers (as ordered). They even offered to help me install wipers if I got the from elsewhere

I've been over-charged, bait and switched, wildly underwhelmed, and still, my car's lights didn't work after paying out far too much money. When i brought my car in to these folks, they listened. They were kind. They had a specialist in San Jose who drove up to check on my car, for which they didn't charge extra. They spent extra time making sure they knew exactly what was going on before they even came up with the estimate. They got a good price on the part and didn't throw a huge up-charge on it. On top of all that, and all the time and effort they put into this, they only charged me for an hour of labor. Even better, they got the job done perfectly. Honesty. Integrity. Amazing skills. They may not have the fanciest shop in Castro Valley, but they have the best crew in Castro Valley. I won't be taking my car anywhere else from now on.

Honestly, these guys seemed shady. You know that gut feeling you get when something feels off? I had that feeling here. Why would he ask if I wanted a flush if that's supposed to be included with the service I already paid for? When I declined, he closed my hood and said he was done. $50 later, I drove off, and all they did was replace the oil filter--no flush, no new oil! I'm frustrated! I really need to look up what an oil change should include cause I thought it was the service I paid for. I sincerely hope this company goes bankrupt! They are straight swindlers--DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY! After drove off, I realized what had just got swindled. Instead of going back to complain, I immediately drove to a reputable place and spent another $50 at Jiffy Lube. Unfortunately, I guess there's a sucker born every day, and that was me this time.
